Great work, Predator!

My custom General/Citizen Aleron from BOOM! Studios Betrayal/Exile On the Planet of the Apes Comic Book Mini Series:

Very nice work on Aleron.

well, I am trying to make it work on a 1/6 scale body. that it works.



Aleron... awesome. I was reading Exile' issue 1 this morning.

 

[Ironman1188]

Sure looks like its working, thats for sure.

The face is 1/6 Ironman. The head needs to be "enlarged" so it resembles the gorillas that you love.

Looks really awesome with real hair DP.

 

[Ironman1188]

Thanks Angel, yours looks damn fine too.
Good to see you around again!

 

[The_Darkness_Predator]

Thanks.

I can't paint as well as Angel, so I didn't repaint the Grodd figure face.

He has big hair, but I think it is finished.

I have two more different Gorilla Grodd heads that I plan to convert to soldiers.

Here is another addition to my ape army:

Whoa! Great photos DP! I really like hair on him buddy.

 

[Jessica]

beautiful hairwork. My God!!


look what my facebook friend photoshopped for me!!

 

[The_Darkness_Predator]

wow, that is so cool.

Kostka, I look forward to seeing more of your creations.

 

[Kostka]

That's the scariest looking gorilla soldier I've ever seen. Amazing and aspiring!

I want to keep getting better. I have a couple more ideas in mind...but I don't want to reveal! I like trying characters that no one has attempted before.

Thanks so much.

Using advice received here, toupee tape holds the large pieces in place. I used Scenic glue along the edges with little fur pieces cut from the backing. It dries matte clear.... mostly.

For my next Gorilla Grodd conversion, I plan to try to make a face plate and glue it on a Hot Toys gorilla soldier head. I hope it works.

An ape project on my bucket list requires life-like hair. I will keep that in mind. Where did you get that hair?

I bought the black Mongolian fur from here:

They even sell samples and have great customer service.

Hi DP! Any orangutan hair on this site! Also, anyone know the best place to buy the Aves apoxie sculpt in the 4 oz. or larger containers? Thanks

 

[The_Darkness_Predator]

orangutan hair? not exactly.

A while back, I got some samples of Ivory Fox fur and Buttercup fur to try out some ideas, but I didn't think it would work after I saw it in hand.
The Ivory Fox fur might work for an elder orangutan.
